Sphinx Bridle Black Bears, 4-3
Thunder Bay right fielder Benny Brisson had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 4-3, to Cairo at Pharaoh's Temple. Brisson was 3 for 5 with a home run and a double, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Mike Huerta notched his 2nd save in 4 chances. The Sphinx own a robust 64-31 mark.

Scott McFarland had a big run-scoring double for the Sphinx in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Cairo leading 3-1 and a runner on 1st, he got a curveball from Brett Johnson and stroked the double to right. It was his 26th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Sphinx ahead, 4-1.

Thunder Bay manager Norm Cobb said he was "mildly disappointed" with the loss. "We had our opportunities, but we didn't take advantage of them," he said.
